I'll preface for those that aren't on RSS anymore. His sponsor started a thread about franchising options and information. Dean immediately responded with a "tell us more" "what type of money is needed" response. The sponsor responded with "I'm glad you asked" and answered the questions. Dean responded with "great info".
I posted this gif:
It got deleted. I posted again asking why it was deleted. That post was also deleted without any explanation. I posted a third time saying that I had been on that board since 2006, it has gone downhill, there's better boards out there, this is high school girl level sensitivity, and that this is the push I need to cancel my sub. That post was also deleted then Dean DM'd me and told me that the poster is a sponsor and only posts once or twice a month and has earned the right as a sponsor (something along those lines). Told me that if I don't like the content of the thread don't open it and that he's not going to let people trash his sponsor. He ended it by saying he hopes I don't leave.
I thought about responding that it has nothing to do with the content of the thread, and it has more to do with how ridiculously sensitive he's being for deleting all these posts. (Mine wasn't the only posts deleted, there were quite a few others). But decided it wasn't worth my time to respond and cancelled my sub.
I've been looking to cancel for quite a while. This was just the push I needed. The only thing I'll somewhat miss is that I do think Robin does a good job covering the basketball team. But I'll just pay closer attention to him on Twitter and I'll get the same information.
